TURKISH INVESTMENTS IN GAGAUZIA’S SOCIAL SPHERE TO REACH US$8 MILLION

13.08.2008

Comrat. In 2008, Turkey’s social investments in Gagauzia should amount to nearly 8 million US dollars, which is an undisputable proof that Turkey treats Gagauzia residents as a fraternal people, Gagauzia Bashkan [Governor] Mikhail Formuzal stated during his meeting with the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Turkey to Moldova, Ahmet Ferit Ulker, held in the autonomous region’s capital city of Comrat on Tuesday.

The chief topic of the conversation, which was attended by many relevant officials, was completion of the water supply project in the Gagauzia town of Chadyr-Lunga. The project is being financed by the Turkish Government via the Turkish International Cooperation Administration (TICA).

Gagauzia industry department chief Peter Zlatov said at the meeting that works worth US$4.9 million have already been fulfilled – out of the 5 million US dollars provided by the Turkish side, namely 85 kilometers of up-to-date water pipelines built, over 3 thousand users linked to the lines, and 300 water shafts installed.

Ambassador Ulker said that his Government is ready to provide extra US$1.6 million for project completion. This money will be sued for building another 20 kilometers of water lines, for repairing and equipping 7 artesian wells, and for repairing street asphalt/concrete pavement.
